Chapter 366 A clear call!
"Nani?"
Hearing this, Colonel Takada Daisuke, Chief of Staff of the 16th Brigade, said in disbelief.
"Didn't the 6th Paratrooper Battalion have broken into Zhenting City? Is it possible to take Zhenting City in half an hour? I guess that by now, the 6th Paratrooper Battalion has taken Zhenting City?"
Just when talking about it later, Takada Daisuke's tone was a little suspicious.
"But we can't know the situation of the 6th Paratrooper Battalion now."
Major General Yagi Yusuke gritted his teeth and said, "I want to report the losses of the attack on the mountain to the General, and see if the General can contact the 6th Paratrooper Battalion immediately now."
"Takada-kun, now you are in the brigade for the time being. Without my order, you must not attack the enemy's mountain positions without authorization."
Seeing this, Takada Daisuke said with a serious look: "Yes, brigade commander, I understand."
"Um!!!"
Yusuke Yagi nodded.
Afterwards, without waiting for Taro Takeshita to summon him, he immediately ran back from the temporary command position of his brigade and rushed to Taro Takeshita's temporary command.
Sure enough, on the way, Yusuke Yagi met the Japanese commander soldiers sent by Taro Takeshita who ordered him to go to the command center.
When Yagi Yusuke rushed to Takeshita Taro's temporary headquarters, he had already seen Takeshita Taro's face very gloomy.
"Your Excellency General!"
When he arrived at Takeshita Taro's command center, Yagi Yusuke immediately bowed his head and stood attentively and saluted.
"Yaki Jun, what are the losses caused by attacking the mountain?"
Taro Takeshita asked without saying nonsense.
"There were almost all casualties. Our brigade, which attacked two enemy mountain positions, had the second and second infantry brigades. The third infantry brigade was completely injured and killed, and only more than one hundred people were left to retreat."
Yagi Yusuke's bitter report: "When the enemy attacked to the two enemy mountains, halfway up the mountain, the enemy had already transferred half of its troops to the back of the mountain."
"Now it seems that, General, this is the confusing act of the enemy, which is to tempt me to attack the mountain with all my strength."
Taro Takeshita looked solemn when he heard this, "Yaki Jun, do you think the enemy's transfer of half of its troops was not to reinforce Zhenting Castle, which was attacked by the paratrooper camp?"
"Your Excellency General is wise."
Yusuke Yagi quickly nodded and said, "And Huyi suspects that something happened to the 6th Paratrooper Battalion of the Imperial Army is probably now."
"Your Excellency General, can you contact the 6th Paratrooper Battalion immediately now?"
Hearing this, Taro Takeshita also understood what Yagi Yusuke meant, and immediately turned his head to the communications officer, Major Kazuo Takaha, and ordered: "Hurry up, send a message to contact the 6th Paratrooper Battalion immediately and ask about their current situation."
"Yes, division commander."
Major Kazuo Tachikawa was not a fool either. He was shocked when he heard Yagi Yusuke and Takeshita Taro talked. He quickly responded and went to the command center to order his communications soldiers to send a message to contact the 6th Paratrooper Battalion.
However, the radio waves were sent out for three minutes, and there was no response.
This unusual sign immediately made Major Kazuo Takaha's face change drastically, and then the Japanese correspondents under his command were sent out again.
After waiting for two minutes without calling back, Major Kazuo Tachiha quickly reported to Takeshita Taro urgently, "The division commander, cannot contact the 6th Paratrooper Battalion!"
"Nani?"
Hearing this, Taro Takeshita, who had been waiting for five minutes, was shocked, and then continued to ask in a voice: "Have the secret code used correctly?"
"It's definitely the right thing to use. It's the secret code sent by the headquarters to contact the 6th Paratrooper Battalion when the headquarters sent us a secret message. It's absolutely right."
Major Kazuo Tachikawa said confidently.
"There's something wrong with the 6th Paratrooper Battalion."
Five minutes have passed and the 6th Paratrooper Battalion has not called back, which means something really happened to the 6th Paratrooper Battalion.
Taro Takeshita then said in a voice to Major General Yusuke Yagi, the commander of the 16th Brigade, "Yaki, your guess is correct."
"There has been an accident in the 6th Paratrooper Battalion."
Seeing this, Yusuke Yagi's face changed drastically and said, "God of General, something happened to the 6th Paratrooper Battalion."
"But we don't know the specific situation now. Perhaps, the 6th Paratrooper Battalion was caught in the fierce battle in Zhenting City, and perhaps the enemy had other troops in Zhenting City, surrounding the 6th Paratrooper Battalion. Perhaps."
Takeshita Taro also realized what he said in the end.
However, Taro Takeshita shook his head and said in disbelief: "The 6th Paratrooper Battalion has a total of elite paratroopers, trained like a devil."
"The paratroopers in this battalion are very elite, and there is no problem with holding an elite reinforcement regiment of the enemy."
Yagi Yusuke gritted his teeth and said, "But we can no longer contact the 6th Paratrooper Battalion, Lord General."
"The worst result is that the 6th Paratrooper Battalion has failed, and the entire battalion was killed and eaten by the enemy."
Although Taro Takeshita was unwilling to believe it, he was unable to contact the 6th Paratrooper Battalion for a long time.
In addition, the two infantry brigades of Yagi Yusuke's attack on the mountain just now failed and almost wiped out the entire army. Before the enemy's attacking troops reached the middle of the mountain, they had already dispatched half of the troops to move behind the mountain.
If we were not going to reinforce Zhenting City, then the enemy troops in Zhenting City could be defended without fear of the consequences of the 6th Paratrooper Battalion.
"Can the 6th Paratrooper Battalion really be killed by the enemy's counterattack?"
Taro Takeshita suddenly couldn't help but think of the worst outcome of the 6th Paratrooper Battalion, and muttered with a drastic change.
At this moment, a Japanese communication soldier walked quickly to Taro Takeshita, Yusuke Yagi and others with anger.
"Report to the division commander, we intercepted the clearly-coded radio jointly issued by Xu Rui, the commander of the enemy 303rd Regiment of the Jinsui Army, and Li Yunlong, the commander of the New First Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. This is the translated telegram content, the division commander."
After silenced his head and saluted, the Japanese correspondent soldier immediately said, and then handed the telegram to Takeshita Taro.
"Let me see, what will Xu Rui and Li Yunlong laugh at the Imperial Army?"
Takeshita Taro, who seemed to know what it meant, sneered after receiving the telegram, just quickly stood up.
"Arrogant, arrogant, Bageya Road, Bageya Road!"
After reading the telegram, Taro Takeshita roared gritting his teeth.
"Yaki Jun, let's take a look!"
After scolding, Taro Takeshita handed the telegram to Major General Yagi Yusuke, the commander of the 16th Brigade, and then suddenly said bitterly: "What you guessed just now is right. Something happened to the 6th Paratrooper Battalion. Moreover, the 6th Paratrooper Battalion did not break into Zhenting City at all. Before the paratrooper landed on the ground, it was wiped out into the air by the air defense firepower buried by Xu Rui's two battalions of troops."
"We had received the 6th Paratrooper Battalion and broke into Zhenting City. We would be able to annihilate the enemy troops stationed in Zhenting City and rescue the secret telegram from the Palace of Xiyuan. The opponent seized the radio station and secret telegram code of the Paratrooper Battalion, and took the initiative to send us a message to confuse us, which was to send troops to attack the mountain with peace of mind."
